If anyone wants a (joint; skins) challenge, this would be a nice change from the usual MA.

Wondering If HiTech would even consider one for the MA.

I asked Skuzzy, who said there'd need to be proper snow skins, and it would have to be partially snowed only.
So there wouldn't need to be more than a few slots for snow skins.

I think this is becoming really lazy work. no snow because no snow skins? we had  a desert map with no desert skins right?

BTW where did that map go?:(

AKDesert aka Pizza was taken out of rotation.
Skins weren't out yet, iirc.
Without snow skins, GVs will be too apparent.  
Actually, with the current black-dot modeling of cons at a distance applying to GVs as well, it might complicate things.

Just a remark:
There was not always a separate and specific snow camouflage used on every plane model!!! E.g. the original Bf109G-2 and G-6 camouflage was considered suitable for both summer and winter in Finland in 1943-44.

On the other hand, the common FAF green-black camo was converted to winter camo by painting over the black parts with a mixture of chalk and glue which could be washed away in the spring. But all planes with that camo pattern did not even always get painted for the winter because they were needed in action.

So, these are just some considerations for the "policy" of skins for winter maps..  :)
